Premium Member The Jews

Years ago, my aunt developed mesothelioma.  She and her husband did not have money for medical care. It was a Jewish hospital that took her in, and helped her through her last days free of charge.
The Jews have built many hospitals, made contributions to many charities, and established many foundations. The list is endless.
 Jews have been instrumental in government and finance. They have served in our American armed forces from recruits to high level generals and admirals.
I have never seen a Jew burn an American flag.
I have never heard of a Jew cry out for his God while assaulting a woman. 
Jews take their God seriously, and are respectful In prayer.
Jews are good pet owners. Many Jews own cats and/or dogs. Jews recognize dogs as one of God's gifts to all of us.
Jews endure a lot of hate and bullying, yet they stay strong.

Premium Member Spider Robinson's Plug In

sitting, spine curling, eyes glassy in rebound reflection 
internal struggle in cyberspace brings smiles and a few brief howls
feeding off my own mass, I disregard this reality

neural synapses tickle the pleasure centers free of charge
have I eaten, have I bathed, have I moved in how many hours 
regard the fantasy, I am the princess ax in hand

clans form around the click and ping the web drawn tight glows
world within world, the always ever after grows and grows, unreal
reality, the construct of naive minds, re-envisions itself

Premium Member Engaging the Senses

I believe that long ago, the universe’s most artistic landscaper 
mixed woodlands with tropics, rock formations with mountains,
volcanic craters with lush valleys, and cascading waterfalls with
pristine still waters before blending all with an ocean and 
topping it off with sunshine.  Man named this place, Hawaii.  
The absolute awe that defines Hawaii, is bound to awaken 
any slumbering faith and rejuvenate any emotion grown numb 
to the brilliance of life.  While visiting the Islands of Hawaii, I 
absorbed a joy and wonder from the plants that delightfully 
startled my own routine senses.  I have been blessed in my life 
to personally view beautiful and eye-catching plant life in many 
regions of the world.  In Hawaii, the plants adorning and tending 
the islands are the most dramatic, glorious and enchanting that 
my vision has ever drunk.  There is an otherness to Hawaiian flora 
that suggests plants are empowered with the ability to uplift, 
stimulate and captivate even the most withdrawn human vision.

Seasons Numbered

There bloomed a field of flowers wild
across a meadow bare
fallen seeds from ravens beak
there traveled free of fare

Heavens tears washed their bed
then covered a blanket spun of sun
giving life to such fragile flowers 
yet to life the winters come

Thin and sheer those sheets like glass
a pretentious lens on the past
much like innocence and a human soul
like ice they crack and adapt

Seasons ever change
and beauty washes away
Tis the artistry within the wild
the knowing it will never be the same

Oh yes, one day, they'll live again
they will seem even stronger than before
finding their moments bathed in tears
but their days in the sun no guarantor 

Cruel winters shall never cease to come
vanishing colors first vibrant
just like the soul exponentially broken
ebbs it's  passion and soon becomes silent

One must color the path they see
one must see the hues of their dreams
for the fare is no longer free of charge
nor the number of seasons we'll see

Premium Member A Clowder of Cats and a Murder of Crows

For those avid crossword groupies of which I are one,
I'm offering free of charge vital data to add to your fun.

So you're stuck on 15-down for the name of a barren of mules!
Groups of creatures you can now name if you use this set of rules!

A group of apes is a shrewdness and a gang of asses is a pace.
Tigers are a streak and you'd better streak should they give chase!

Can you believe that skittish plovers are called a congregation?
(I wonder, perhaps Baptist, Lutheran, Catholic or other denomination?)

You might see a cackle of hyenas or a tower of giraffes at zoos,
Or if on a Kenyan safari a bloat of hippos or a fleet herd of gnus.

The name for a prickle of porcupines is an appropriate moniker for sure!
A sleek bunch of ferrets is called a business, and, why, I'm unsure.

Pesky squirrels are called a scurry and a warren is for rabbits.
(There are many warrens of rabbits due to their promiscuous habits!)

Badgers are grouped as a cete and leopards are known as a leap;
Moles are known as a labor and a herd or drove identifies sheep.

Parliaments of owls meet in trees and eagles in convocations.
Jellyfish waft about in smacks and peacocks strut in ostentations!

Screeching cormorants are a gulp which sounds mighty weird.
Steer clear of a crash of rhinos since they are to be feared!

Charming finches are called a charm and larks an exaltation,
Turkeys a rafter, frogs an army and starlings a murmuration.

Locusts are known as a plague and cockroaches an intrusion.
An unkindness of ravens and their raucous caws just causes confusion!

Groups of humans are known as Republicans, Democrats or Nazarenes,
Jerks and morons but this barely includes all human species by any means!

Premium Member The Punny Side of Life

Was going to look for my missing watch
But just couldn't find the time
Simply no telling where my mind is going
This very strange mind of mine

Here's the ultimate groaner, my friends
I used to be a good tap dancer
But then one sad day I fell in the sink
Asked how I was, couldn't answer

D'ya hear about the crime that happened
In a downtown parking garage?
It was so damn wrong on so many levels
Heard it was a case of sabotage

With the scary approach of the apocalypse
Armageddon out of here
That's silly, whoever's coming up with these
Is more than just a little bit weird

A man had a difficult time bouncing back
From a  serious bungee cord accident
Been to the dentist and I know the drill
Tells me toothaches you can prevent

Reading a great book about anti-gravity
Find it almost impossible to put down
It's floating around the living room all day
One time it nearly broke my crown

Dead batteries are sometimes given away
Free of charge I have heard
Think someones's trying to brighten my day
Now that is downright absurd

oh the distill
to fly the sky
I saw a garbage bag in the clouds

how could it makes it so hight
as I dropping my arms and legs
grew a pair of wings

going to China
and shared some barbecues
for the rescue

of lost birds
not knowing where
is north

the moon so confusing
with so many windows
but sure put my flag there

all stars and stripes
and a lack of oxygen
or call it gravity

I tend to my garden
not eden what's in a name
the boa I constrict

the horse to trot
the avenues
and the ventures

car traffics
the roads
of the rorschachs

and the last hamburger
must be germany
to eat the bun

oh no just a computer
with hefty bills
to eat you all

as my habit to drink coffee
Nespresso every morning
with almond milk

I got it free of charge
not reading their pamphlet
in chinese

gee saved myself 200 hundreds
and the coffee is good
must I've learn from Morocco

beef beaf what is your meat
to tell me the protest
of greens the goat climbing the tree

of argane or archaid
just a monkey
blinding  my eyes

a mouth to silence
and ears not listen
but a look at the clouds

Premium Member We Did It Our Way On Our Wedding Day

Marriage – our commitment for LIFE as husband and wife

It wasn’t a leap year when I proposed to you
But I'd got down on one knee,  as it’s traditional to do!

We organised and paid for our own wedding day 
This meant we had control and could do it ‘our' way

We got married two years to the day from our very first date 
Both of us bubbling over with excitement, we just couldn’t wait

My hair was perfect, make up and manicure too
I wanted to look absolutely beautiful for you

The dress was of pretty peach, not a formal wedding dress 
I’m not one for fussy frills and flounces I must confess 

You wore a charcoal coloured suit and looked so very smart 
Our vows committed us forever – I love you with all my heart 

After our registry office ceremony we had a lovely meal
A carvery for close family and friends, the venue was ideal 

We held a huge party for 300 guests later on that night
Our wedding day was perfect everything turned out right

The wedding night was spent at a beautiful local hotel
On learning it was our wedding day they really did excel 

They upgraded us free of charge to their honeymoon suite 
With champagne and chocolates and fresh fruit to eat

Premium Member The Good Earth

My daddy was a farmer, 
a good one who knew how to 
manipulate the elements in order
to achieve agricultural success. 

He was well aware that all 
of the elements play their part
and are necessary for growth but
the most tangible one is the soil.
I have seen him take
a handful, smell it,
work it and then let it
run through his fingers back
to the good earth from which it came.

If it smelled sour, he would take loads of lime 
and spread them over his vast fields.
If it clumped as he worked it, he knew
it was too wet and he must have patience.
Dry, lifeless soil alerted him
to add living organisms.

He would top dress the soil 
with aged manure,
collected free of charge from
his livestock, cows,
sheep, horses, chickens.
Nothing went to waste on the farm.
Or he might know it was time to
rest a field for a season,  
He would plant a cover crop
which would grow and
be plowed back into the soil
to give it new vigor.

He planted on faith that
the rains would come,
the sun would shine
and the winds would be still,
when the crop seeds  were ripe.
Heavy winds could take his seeds before
he could safely harvest them.

Next year he would start again
and prepare his soil
so that all elements could work together to
insure success.

A Packet of Lies

A PACKET OF LIES

I will build houses on the oceans
And you shall have no cause to
Cry again like those without shelter;
I will build an Estate and make it
Free of charge for all masses.
I shall declare my assets naked
When you vote for me this time.

All students shall go on scholarship,
I will build schools and hostel for them,
All the beggars shall dine on my table;
No more beggars strike, all are free to beg no more.
When the rain fall, it shall drench none,
The sun shall not harm our children.
One plate of food twice a day for all public school
Children in the country, is that not a change?
All the children shall be well taken care of
Because they are the leaders of tomorrow.

I will take care of the widows in the land,
I shall be their husband day and night,
None shall be barren in this land of hope;
For there shall be plenty to eat and leave.
The widows shall be elevated in my courtyard,
None shall cry over their lost husbands.

Henceforth, I shall do my own share 
In the building of this great nation,
I shall attend to matter of the state,
Great delicate diplomatic issues shall I solve.
The roads shall smile and rejoice when I assume office.
I shall share the national cake equally,
I will repair the refineries and fight corruption in the state,
I shall play my own role  in the nation building.


Insurgency shall be no more,
Killing and terrorism shall end,
BH shall I conquer within three months in office,
Vote for me!  vote for change!! Vote for me!!!
I know the way to the BH's heart which we know.
I shall stand for everyone in the country,
For I shall go against my own grain to satisfy your
Mutual quest of corrupt free country.

Freedom shall be for the Bus-drivers,
The market women shall testify and rejoice,
I will make our currency higher than the pounds.
I am for everybody and not for anyone,
Vote for change not transformation,
Vote for united nation not for disunity.


Vote for freedom of the press,
Vote for social amenities,
I wll serve those that vote for me and those 
That didn't vote for me because everyone has his choice to make.
I will turn the country round to favour all,
The hunt and the hunted, and the hunter.
Abundance of bread shall we all live in,
I promise not to fail you when you vote for me.
